TYSONS, Va. — International award-winning firm KTGY Architecture + Planning announced today that AVA NoMa in Washington, D.C., was honored by Delta Associates at the firm’s 21st Annual Washington/Baltimore Multifamily Market Overview & Awards for Excellence program. AVA NoMa won “Best Washington/Baltimore High-Rise Apartment Community.”
AVA NoMa (short for “north of Massachusetts Avenue”) is a new 13-story, 438-unit mixed-use apartment community developed by AvalonBay Communities and designed by KTGY Architecture + Planning. The apartment homes range from studio to three-bedroom units. Community amenities include more than 20,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenities; an indoor-outdoor roof deck with a swimming pool and views of the DC skyline including the Capitol and the Washington Monument, an indoor-outdoor lounge with a kitchen and theater, and an indoor-outdoor fitness center with a yoga and spin studio. The large gym opens onto an outdoor courtyard with additional fitness equipment. The building also has a 24-hour concierge on staff to manage the package delivery system and accommodate residents. The ground floor also includes a dog park and pet spa, plus 6,700 square feet of retail space. AVA NoMa has a cast-in-place and post-tensioned concrete structural frame with brick veneer and metal panel exterior finishes reminiscent of the warehouse district of the past and the modern style of the present.
The event was held on October 25, 2017, at the National Association of Home Builders Conference Center in Washington, D.C.
